Small Cell
Lung Cancer Complications

Small cell lung cancer is
often subject to complications. Even after treatment, the tumor can obstruct the airways and increases the risk
of respiratory infections like bronchitis or pneumonia.

In addition, the cancer can
spread into other parts of the body to form metastases. Most often, the metastases are formed in the bone, brain
or liver. Once in these organs, the tumor can cause bone disease, neurological problems, liver disease, and more
serious health problem including death.
